August 6, 2023 - Weekend in Michigan with Wine; 8/5/2023-8/6/2023 (Asian Spice House - Buchanan MI): Perfumed nose with so much spice and dense, ripe black and red berries. Possibly still slightly showing its new oak, but a real glorious aromatic entrance. Flavors follow through, even with some less intensity or complexity. Maybe some further upside.

April 6, 2022 - Side by side the Cras 15 (among others) during a CLB NSG 1er cru evening. This was probably the preferred young wine at the table out of those younger Cras plus CGV 14+17. For me possibly too but by a whisker vs the 15. The 16 had a noticable reduction, it was very electric in its energy and inner mouth tension (vs the more lush and plush 15) yet with immense fruit intensity leaning slightly more to dark than red fruits (vs 15 is decidedly red). A very complete wine that would be very intersting to revisit in 5-10 years. 95++
